Counting the ballots…
Connecticut's ballot is a fight about who got there first. New Haven claims the hamburger, still served as Hamburger on Toast since 1900, and New Haven Apizza is the most pedigreed pie in America. Hartford Election Cake may be the country's oldest cake recipe. The shoreline sends Norwalk Oysters, the Lobster Roll, Lobster Bisque, and Shad Roe, gone by May. The rest is lunch: a Grinder, a Steamed Cheeseburger, an Apple Cider Donut. Connecticut is famous for claiming the hamburger, and for the pizza that outranks it. So what is Connecticut's official state dish? That is what the vote decides.
